bath salts?

So I was just wondering if you all knew anything about bath salts and pregnancy? I've heard they are bad, I've heard they are fine... Should I just call my OB and ask or does anyone know for sure without a doubt yes or no?

My OH gave me lavender bath oils and bath salts as part of my V-day gift.

Okay good. I keep being told that I shouldn't use the bath salts and it makes me sad lol. I really really really want to use them. I looove the smell of Lavender...and they were part of my OH's Vday gift for me.

I know the US tends to be a little over the top when it comes to pregnant women compared to you UK peoples, and all your babies are comin out alright (as a matter of opinion, hahaha) so I'm going to trust you.

I use either Treasures of the Sea bath salts or epsom salts everyday in the bath. My OB actually recommended them. Don't think I would have made it through the last few months of aches and pains without them.
